Fairest

Has this series been any good? I bought the 1st trade, which was written by Willingham/drawn by Jiminez - and it was decent. But I see the 2nd trade (issues 8-14 w/Rapunzel) is by Lauren Beukes & Inaki Miranda? I fon't know either of them. Good story? Good art? Are they the regulars on the book? Or just for this arc?

I believe that each arch will have a different creative team.

Thanks. Did you read the 2nd arc/opinion?

Yes, there are different creative teams for each story. Issue #7 was a single-issue story, and was quite good. With the third story (a six-issue arc) we get to see the Japanese fables for the first time. The story was pretty good—more interesting than the first story, to me anyway—and the art was nice. Overall, I’d say the series is not as good as Fables but better than Jack of Fables.

I am getting it in trade as well. I loved the first arc though. I would agree that it is not as good as the main fables series but better than Jack of Fables.

I enjoyed both story arcs so far. For me, the first arc was more enjoyable. The art on both was good but I thought the first arc was exceptional. I am switching to trades now with the 2nd arc ended.

I really enjoyed the 1st arc so much I want to get my Fables/Fairest fixes now in tpb only (or HC w/ Fables Deluxe Ed.). The art on the 1st Fairest arc was awesome.

Very true. It has a completely different feel to it.
